Be here, when the <strong>Roman</strong>s are comming An experience for the whole family History to touch<br />

It is the only one of ist kind - A civilian <strong>Roman</strong><br />

city in the occupied Germania.<br />

A historic site, established around the turn of the<br />

first millennium where <strong>Roman</strong>s and Germans<br />

lived and traded peacefully some 2000 years<br />

ago. A visible symbol of the extent of that<br />

emerging city was ist ´forum´ - a central<br />

administration building. This building was<br />

surrounded by a great number of residential<br />

buildings and workshops. A rampart protected<br />

the area.<br />

Excavations show building fragments. The<br />

discovery of numerous pieces of jewellery and<br />

utensils are interpreted to be evidential of<br />

peaceful relationships between the ethnicities of<br />

that era and their far reaching trade relations.<br />

The Varus Battle in 9 AD during which the<br />

<strong>Roman</strong>s were defeated sealed the faith and<br />

history of this ancient roman site and brought<br />

historical changes to the whole of Europe as the<br />

<strong>Roman</strong> troops had to retreat and re-define their<br />

borders ad the banks of the River Rhine. The city<br />

they left behind was left to it´s faith.<br />
